Aurora has introduced a new influenza A/H1N1 diagnostic detection kit for in vitro quantification of the virus.
Multiple sequence alignments and validation of this kit against a positive H1N1 patient sample make it ideal for detection.
The kit contains ready-to-use reagents, offers fast real-time detection and provides excellent sensitivity and high specificity.
Specifically designed primers as well as a composite fluorescent probe allow utilisation of realtime fluorescent PCR amplification to target the genetic sequence of the influenza A/H1N1.
The H1N1 reagent kit is also optimised for use in automated liquid-handling workstations.
By combining this kit with Aurora's Versa workstations, laboratories can fully automate the amplification process, thereby reducing cost and operator error, while increasing efficiency.
